But definitely jump for the one over $100, if you can. I have a Toto C5 and it's pure fucking luxury. Heated seat, heated water, drying fan, user profiles, the whole nine yards.
Sounds nice but it's more than 10x the price of the bidet I got, which I'm really happy with. I doubt it's going to be worth it but maybe one day I'll try it and change my mind
I have one fancy one and a bare bones model. I live in the mountains and we lose power often. The fancy one won't even spray without power, which is why I bought the economy version. Honestly, I prefer the cheap one! Much more pressure and instant on-off are a good trade for a cold seat and cold water.
The bidet was definitely one of those things I couldn't ever see myself using until a friend gifted it to me and now I feel unclean every time I use a toilet without one.
Do you know what's the difference between a bidet and ecowasher? I have a Toto ecowasher, I got the cheapest one but a year later didn't know there was a better one with a bidet function for like another $15. I asked the sales person and they can't answer it, but apparently it has two functions instead of one like I had. They're both operated mechanically without electricity.
